Warning, I got sick Friday night, and this game was born from the incoherent musings of a fevered mind.
Proceed at your own risk.
Play as an uncle on a jackhammer, digging your way to eternity. Beware of the purple monsters, and try to collect the sparkly green things.
The goal is to collect as many green jewels as you can before reaching the end of the world, where you will forever fall, deeper and deeper into the endless void.
The controls are abominable.. Basically, you lean in the direction of the mouse pointer, and the farther away the pointer is, the higher you bounce. While the mouse button is held down, you go into jackhammer overdrive mode. There are keyboard equivalents... kind of. Use the arrow keys- left right to lean, up to jump higher, and down for jackhammer overdrive. If you get stuck, sorry.
I decided to opt out of audio because a couple of friends helped play the vibraphones in the park. However, it was only on that one track in the background music, so it was only barely over the line.
